    Helping my Father-In-Law and my Father hunt Elk.

    Hey Guys, Happy Monday! In the last year I have been talking with my Father and my soon to be Father-In-Law about hunting Elk here in the west. They have both expressed regret that they never had a chance to hunt elk and are under the impression that their age (59 and 72) has pretty much ruled...

Now I had heard, suspected, and guessed that OTC Units get pounded by everyone and their uncle and I was right but once we got out into the field we didn't...

    Montana or Colorado?

    Here is the synopsis: I have lived in Arizona for 4 years (moved here to be closer to my young son, it's a long story), my new wife has lived here for 16 years and we are both originally from the Midwest. In 9 years my son turns 18, that means he is on his own and we can bug out and get away...

    Chest or Stand Up Freezer

    Hey Guys! Quick Question, do you prefer a chest or stand up freezer for big game meat? I am trying to decide on which to go with for my garage. Ideally I would love to have a freezer that could hold at least one elk and a deer, so I guess I am also not sure on the size I would need. Any...

    Help! Shooting problems!

    Hey guys I have developed a couple of issues with shooting my bow that I am not sure how to fix. As a preface, I have been bow hunting for almost 20 years and I am by no means a noob, so the development of these issues is super annoying!

    Arizona is burning; what does that mean for AZ Tag holders?

    Not sure how many people are aware of this but there are several wildfires raging in my state. The Magnum Fire (cause not yet determined) has eaten 45,000+ acres in the famous Kaibab with about only 3% containment and the Bush Fire (human caused) has exploded in the Tonto National Forest, eating...

    Boots on the ground socuting...

    Heading out today to do an early scout of the area I am hunting this fall. As early as it is I am not specifically looking for the Elk I will be hunting but instead I decided to focus on the following: 1.

    Plan A, B, C.......

    Good Morning! I have an Elk hunt this fall and I have been setting up plans and ideas on what to do for the hunt and any possible scenarios that come up; such as hunting pressure, can't find the elk, can't find water, so on and so forth.

    Hey Guys, My buddy and I are doing an OTC Archery Elk Hunt in Colorado the 3rd week of September, after the full moon and just before the Fall Equinox. I feel like the rut should be in full swing and close to it's peak, correct me if I am wrong. My question is, what elevation should I be...
